His association with the entertainment world was not just because of the family rela- tionship in having Peter Lawford as a brother-in-law, but also be- cause of the interest which every phase of show business seemed to hold for him, He and the First Lady were the first resi- dents of the White House to pre- sent regular musical productions to their distinguished audiences, and because of President and Mrs. Kennedy, the world of the performing arts gained newpres- tige in the United States,There is little else that needs to be said; the world's grief was most evident in the excellent, yet heart-rending coverage given by television cameras through- out the world. The curtains are going up and the shows are go- ing on once again, but memb- bers of the profession, behind the facade of make-up and paint, are continuing to mourn the loss of their beloved leader and friend, and beneath the spoken lines from the meaning- less script are whispering pray- ers for his young widow, his small children, and members of his family. 0--0--0 Robert Stroud, the 73 -year- old convict who became fam- ous as the 'Birdman of Alcatrez; died on November 21st at the U.S. Medical Centre in Spring- field, Missouri. Stroud was ser- ving a life term for murder and has been in prison for 54 years. He died of natural causes. His famous nickname came from the many experiments he made SHOPPING IS BETTER IN h WHATEVER YOU'RE HUNTING FOR—IT'S A SAFE BET THAT A WINGHAM ms's • MERCHANT HAS IT.

A movie based on his life was produced in Hollywood in 1982. Burt Lancaster played the role of Stroud, and was nominated for an Academy Award, but Gregory Peck, in his lawyer - role in "To Kill A Mockingbird" defeated him for the honours. 0--a--o One of the busiest perform- ers in the U.S. now is Canada's pride and joy, Bob Goulet. He is in Hollywood in the midst of his first motion picture, "His and His" for M -G -M studios, He will, sing three songs (includ- ing the title one) in the picture which also stars Nancy Kwan, Robert Morse, and Jill St. John, This assignment will keep him busy through Christmas, thenhe switches to night-clubs, open- ing on December 27th at the Flamingo in Las Vegas. Other engagements include club dates at Philadelphia, Miami, San Francisco, and the Cocoanut Grove in Los Angeles. He is also expected to make another movie, Irving Berlin's "Say It With Music" and a production, as yet unnamed, with Doris Day for producer Ross Hunter. In addition to this he has two new albums on the market, "Robert Goulet on Tour" and an album of Christmas songs; isreadying a special for CBS -Television to be entitled "The Robert Goulet Hour"; and is planning to start action with his own production company, Rogo, for a musical series for CBS. His company will produce the variety series much like the 'Perry Como' style, which is expected to pay over 24 million dollars over the next four years. If Bob had been told a few years ago when he was singing two songs a wee on CBC's 'Showtitne' that he would be this famous and suc- cessful, he probably would have laughed! But facts don't lie, and it looks. as though he may become the most popular new movie star of The Sixties. 0--0--0 More culture was brought to Canadian TV screens last week when 'Festival' presented young Frenchman -composer -conduc- tor Pierre Boulez in his North American debut. Well, he may be a great Frenchman and an excellent conductor, but he should leave the composing for someone more capable. His "Improvisations" for soprano voice and nine solo instruments was certainly different. It gave you the impression that you wanted to either laugh or cry, and actually, either would have been suitable. I somehow ex- pected that he would turn around and apologize when it had ended, but he didn't, so I guess it was meant to sound lik- that! I deeply admired the young soprano who muddled I PACK "B" The regular meeting of "B" Pack was held in the Scout House on Thursday evening, with 33 Cubs present and four leaders. Opening Grand Howl and In- spection were taken by Akala, Ron Zimmer, and best Cub was won by Bobby LaRose. It was pointed out to the boys.that itis not always the smartest --for the boys as a whole have improved so much that it is almost im- possible to pick out the best dressed Cub --but general im- provement over the weeks is also taken into consideration. Now that the Pack is fully invested inspection will be taken on a Sixer basis, rather than just the individual Cub. This will mean points to each boy in the Six and the best total point winner will be awarded the Ring each night, Now it becomes a bat- tle of the group and not the in- dividuaI. This is to teach the boys that they must work to- gether as a unit and not pull down the Six. Jim Miller continued in- struction and passing of the Road Safety Test. Ron Zimmer fin- ished all but two of the boys in passing First Star Knots. Peggy Ahara instructed in the story of the Patron Saints and nine boys passed this requirement also. Adelaide Ahara inspected and passed several items brought in for the badge of Toymaker and also collections for the Collec- tor's badge. A short activity period fol- lowed with tumbling and the meeting closed with the Mouse Howl, Taps and the Cub Prayer taken by Adelaide Ahara, 0--o--0 BELGRAVE CUBS 1st Belgrave Cub pack met on Tuesday evening in the com- munity centre with three lead- ers and a good number of Cubs present. Akehla (Mrs. Kenneth Wheeler) opened with the Grand Howl, followed by the Lord's prayer. The Black Six with Billy Fear as sixer had the most points and so had their pennant on the to- tem pole. Baloo (Mrs. Harold Vincent) led in games. Neil Vincent told the Cubs a story. Bagherra (Mrs. Gordon McBur- ney) led in another game. Several Cubs were invested: Douglas Cloakey, Duanne Cur- rie, Neil Bcirnan, Keith Black. Receiving their second stars were Richard Anderson, Billy Fear and Keith VanCamp.These three Cubs are now eligible to fly up to Scouts. The next Meeting will be held on Dec, - ember 10, PACK "A" The regular meeting ofCub Pack " A" was held Tuesday evening with 31 boys present, (perfect attendance), and three leaders, Cubmaster Fridenburg took the Grand Howl and then inspected the boys for cleanlin- ess and neatness. LeslieThomp- son was chosen to wear the special woggle for being the neatest Cub. The tremendous improvement regarding neatness and cleanliness makes it in- creasingly more difficult to choose just one boy each meet- ing. Keep up the good work Cubs! C.M. Fridenburg instructed several boys in semaphore, a test requirement for their 2nd star. A.C.M. L. Lloyd in- structed another group in high- way safety rules and Assistant Leader C. Kennedy drilled the remaining boys on flag compo- sition and patron saints. The meeting ended with the Grand Howl, "0 Canada" and "God Save the Queen" were sung and the Cub prayer repeated. The Cubs were then dismissed.
